Can you convert 120 volts 1 phase into 208 volts 3 phase 40 amps per phase and would it be cheaper to get 208 volts 40 amps per phase installed in your house by electrician?
Answer for USA, Canada and countries running a 60 Hz supply service.To answer the first part of the question. No you can not convert 120 volts single phase into 208 volts 3 phase. In fact it is the other way around, the 120 volts is the line to ground (neutral) of a three phase 208 volt system.The second part of the question is dependant on there being a three phase 208 volt system already installed. To obtain 40 amps per phase would require a three pole breaker to be installed in a 120/208 three phase distribution panel.The distribution panel would most likely be in the 100 to 200 amp capacity range. This kind of installation would definitely have to be installed by an electrical contractor as inspections and permits would have to be taken out for the project.As always, if you are in doubt about what to do, the best advice anyone should give you is to call a licensed electrician to advise what work is needed.Before you do any work yourself,on electrical circuits, equipment or appliances,always use a test meter to ensure the circuit is, in fact, de-energized.IF YOU ARE NOT ALREADY SURE YOU CAN DO THIS JOBSAFELY AND COMPETENTLYREFER THIS WORK TO QUALIFIED PROFESSIONALS.
What is microbial limit test?
A microbial limit test is done on products to see if thy complies with compendial specifications for microbial quality. The two parts of the test are the quantitative phase and the qualitative phase.

Why am I only getting 120 volts from a 30 amp breaker that should be feeding 220 volts?
I assume you have a 30 amp two pole 220 volts breaker. Check the voltage source. If the source voltage is 220V, but out let voltage is 120 then the breaker must be faulty, a high resistance or partial open circuit could have caused the reduced voltage at the breaker outlet.
Why does your 120 outlet measure 49 volts when you test it with a multimeter?
Either the supply or the multimeter is faulty.

Can I test wires from a 3 phase motor to see if its configured in low or high voltage?
Using a multimeter, check the continuity of motor winding from phase to phase ( U to V, V to W , W to U ). Each phase to phase must have a continuity if winding is OK. If any particular phase fails the continuity test, your motor is probably burnt.

How do you know when to replace the alternator when not running?
The alternator must be running to test without disassembly. If you remove it, many auto part stores will test at no charge. One test is a voltage test. Start the engine and use a multimeter to check the voltage at the battery. It should read between 13.5 and 16 volts. Any less or more and the alternator is bad.

What does kv stand for in a dielectric test?
Kilovolt or 1000 volts. 1KV is 1000 volts, 2KV is 2000 volts. Kilo stands for 1000.
How do you test a mower battery?
Same as any other 12 volt battery. Test it with a DC voltmeter. 12.6 volts = 100% charged 12.4 volts = 75% 12.2 vlots = 50% 12.0 volts = 00%
Load test on 3 phase induction motor?
When you do a load test on a 3-phase induction motor you are checking the power factor, viz slip, and efficiency of the motor. You can test various loads with this test.
How can you test alternator for 2002 ford escape without scanner?
Easiest test is to use a voltmeter. Engine stopped , voltage about 12 volts Engine running, voltage about 14.7 volts.
Why Y phase is high in YNyn0 when doing magnetic balance test?
because y phase is y phase ...it is not b phase or R phase so it is high
